Have some graffiti candy hearts!
There is a light that never goes out.
It’s always summer here.

A new take on the Statue of Liberty
An invitation to return…
Every day is a carnival.
Serving up a glass of surrealism.
It’s easy to get lost in the image.
Everything looks different from up here.
Blue skies and sunny days.
Even the buildings are magical.
These palm trees seem luminescent.
Grab a dream-like burger.
Roller coaster of love.
His framing and angles are incredible.
Fly away with me.
Nostalgic evenings.
Don’t let go!
It’s a small world.
Have a whimsical birthday.
Another candy brick in the wall.
Take a walk down dream street.
